#1 could be seen here. #2 is a halfpenny of William III, I believe "obverse 2", 1699 #3 is a halfpenny of George I. Here another example is being discussed Edited by svslav

artdio, you need to remeasure your Victorian coin. If it's 12 cm (?!?!) then it's a giant, if it's 12 mm then it's a runt, becase the smallest coin, 1/4 farthing is 13.5 mm diameter.

no probs.... Think I will just finish a cold one then back to the camera... Will post those Bun heads and others either later tonight or tomorrow for sure...Maybe I will toss in a couple US tokens and Old large cent with no date ..Not worn just no date.. I looked in the Red Book and I think its from the late 1700's.. and some token from Boston? |

Just as I thought (I once measured with a wrong ruler). So now it's final: as I said it was a copper halfpenny, 28 mm diameter. (In 1860 they switched to bronze and reduced the size to 25 mm.)
